Why crew need CrewNest in Chicago

O'Hare is one of the world's busiest airports — crew here need reliable, affordable housing close to the action.

United’s Primary Hub

O’Hare is the main hub for United Airlines, with thousands of pilots and flight attendants based here. The demand for affordable, crew-friendly short-term housing is massive and constant.

Massive Regional Operations

Beyond United, ORD is a major base for regional carriers like Republic, SkyWest, and Air Wisconsin. Regional crew on tighter budgets need crash pads that won’t eat into their paychecks.

Year-Round Connecting Traffic

As one of America’s busiest airports, O’Hare sees consistent crew traffic every month of the year. Whether it’s summer peak or winter operations, ORD crews always need a place to rest.
